This page documents the FILEUPLOADS configuration setting in FormMail.
Type Of Setting
FILEUPLOADS is an OPTIONAL setting, which means...
OPTIONAL : you can change this setting if you need to, but the default value is fine for most circumstances.
Précis
Enables file upload processing.
Description
Set FILEUPLOADS to true if you want to allow forms to upload files. Leave at false to prevent file attachments in your emails or file storage on the server.
This is a security measure. Setting to false prevents attackers from using your FormMail to send you malicious file attachments or saving files on your server.
The php.ini and httpd.conf files can set file_uploads to false to disable file uploading. You cannot override a false setting in these files.
Default Value
From version 9 onwards:
$FILEUPLOADS = false;
Before version 9:
define("FILEUPLOADS",false);
Examples
From version 9 onwards:

Before version 9:
